BB desktop software for Mac OS 10.4
Sorry, there is a version of BB Desktop Software compatible with Mac OS 10.4? Thanks to all...
BlackBerry Desktop Manager requires 10.5.5 or higher, there isn't a version of it that supports 10.4.x
An older version of PocketMac (ver 4.x) or the current version of Missing Sync for BlackBerry (2.0.x) are the sync options for 10.4.x users.

Hello All,
Is there a Blackberry Desktop Software for MAC OS 10.4.11? Or something equivalent?
I recently switched from a palm treo to blackberry but didn't anticipate syncing issues with my mac until now. The current BB desktop software seems only compatible with MAC OS 10.5, so I'm in a difficult position.
Please any suggestions are deeply welcomed!!
Thank you.
HillmanNo, sorry, there is not.

Using Desktop Software for Mac with an 8703e - Can it be done?
I downloaded the new BB desktop software for Mac but it doesn't seem to work with my 8703e device. And since I had to erase the PocketMac software to install the new BB software, I now have no way to synch my Mac and BB. Can anyone shed any light on this?
You might check out the FileBrowser app on iTunes. I haven't used it, but it sounds like what you're after. When you say you can't use the Sierra iG2 with your iPad, I'm assuming you mean you can't plug it into the iPad. If it's plugged into a laptop and offering a WiFi hotspot, the iPad should be good with that. I use the Apple Camera Connection Kit to carry extra movies on an SD card. It uploads only to the Photos app, so no books, etc.

Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac won't open
I've downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac to begin synching my new Torch but when I try to launch the software, I get the following message.
"The document “BlackBerry Desktop Software.mpkg” could not be opened. TextEdit cannot open files in the “Installer package” format."
Has anyone encountered this and had any luck getting it to open?
Any advice appreciated -- anxious to update my contacts and fully use my new phone!Hi choochoo2,
Have you been able to try using a different USB port or to retry connecting after reinserting the BlackBerry battery? If so, try reinstalling the Desktop Software and retrying the connection.

Desktop Software for MAC allows only two way sync
hi...
I want help with the Blackberry desktop software for MAc. I am able to synce my phone, however there is no way in which I can do a one-way sync - replacing all the data on the mac with the data of the phone...
please let me kniw if there is any way of doing that
thanksIsn't it simply because of the known problem with iCloud sync enabled?
This operation makes the address book and calendar(s) invisible to BBDM as the data files are "removed" from the Mac and put "in the cloud"...
Several posts are documenting the problem and suggest some alternatives or work around (by disabling iCloud).
Look on the forum for additional details.

Sync problem with Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac
Can someone help. I have synchronization problem with my contact in the Outlook for Mac using blackberry desktop software for mac. Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

Blackberry Bold 9900 would not sync with Desktop Software for MAC
When connecting my Bold 9900 to my MAC the Desktop Software opens correctly, phone is recognised and connected but the SYNC option is not available. I cannot click the Green sync button nor click the relevant sync button under the device tab.
All answers would be much appreciated
Thanks
DimitrisHi dimitrisuk,
Welcome to the support community!
Can you please verify that your synchronization settings have already been configured? This article should provide more information. "Unable to configure sync or click the sync icon due to the icons being greyed out in BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac" KB26367
This link to the user guide provides the steps to verify that your synchronization settings have been configured. http://blck.by/14BZb5q
Let me know if that helps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. ThanksHey luckyBB,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
I noticed you listed your carrier as T-Mobile UK, this provider does not have the 9900 yet. Can you explain what provider this 9900 is from so I can better assist in getting that bundle of software

Unable to update to OS 6.0 Bundle 2647 either wirelessly or via Desktop Software for Mac
I have a BB Torch 9800 and I've tried all I know to update the system software on my BB wirelessly but it gives me the message "Update cannot continue, Update using BB Desktop Manager on your computer". So I plugged my BB in but it doesn't give me a prompt or anything to update and I'm not sure what's wron. Help please!
Hello azureJTR,
I'm not sure if you have solved your issue yet or not...
To update your BlackBerry's operating system on a Mac is a simple procedure but you can only upgrade to the level that your wireless carrier has released to. I see you're using Bell and they are usually quick to update their offerings.
Follow this guide item:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/32688/Update_device_applications_2.0_Mac...
New available versions of the BlackBerry's OS are shown when you click the "Show Other Versions" button. (Your BlackBerry needs to be connected for the Desktop software to know both what applications you have installed and the Operating System).
If a newer version than the one you currently have loaded is available in that menu, then do a backup then highlight the item then follow the onscreen commands.

Desktop Software for Mac Lion OSX Doesn't Show or Sync any Contacts
Hi there,
I am a brand new Blackberry user and so far am VERY frustrated. I also own an iPhone and love the thing because it just WORKS. Anyways, I downloaded the Desktop Software so I can sync my Mac Address Book with my Blackberry Curve 9360. Souldn't the software give me a choice of where I would like to sync my contacts from? It doesn't. And it just shows a blank empty list. I read another topic on here that iCloud needs to be disabled. I'm not sure how exactly to disable it but believe I did. But it still shows a blank list. Besides, iCloud is very handy and why would I want to turn it off. Shouldn't BLACKBERRY fix this problem so it works? I am not happy and if this doesn't get resolved in the next 24 hours, I will be returning to Rogers and sending this phone back and will NEVER return to RIM again. No wonder the stocks are plumiting. PLEASE HELP ME! I'm a tech savy guy and even I can't figure out how to get my contacts onto my Blackberry without doing it manually (which isn't going to happen).Isn't it simply because of the known problem with iCloud sync enabled?
This operation makes the address book and calendar(s) invisible to BBDM as the data files are "removed" from the Mac and put "in the cloud"...

Hi, I have a new blackberry bold 9900, the latest operating system for Apple (OSX Lion), the latest update on my desktop software and the latest update on my BB. However, I am only able to sync 37 of my contacts to Address Book on my mac, and I want to sync all 250+. I am not sure why this is.
Also for some reason, my new contacts are being saved to my googlemail contact list, although i have never specified this. Is there a way to stop this, and is there a way to change the contacts that are already saved on my googlemail list to my Desktop list?
thank you for your help in advance....Hey All,
DBJohnson - The Forget Device option removes all the synchronization history that is associated with that BlackBerry so if there was a corruption in the synchronization folder it would be cleared and fixed.
rubenmarcano - How many contacts are setup on the Mac Address Book? Do you 2 different Address Books on the BlackBerry? To find this information, go into Contacts on the BlackBerry and press the menu key and select Options and it will list 2 Contact lists. IF there is 2, that can cause the problem since BlackBerry Desktop Software will only synchronize with 1 contact list. I look forward to your reply.
Joycetz - Did you sync not work from BlackBerry to Mac or vice versa? Also are you using Outlook or Mac Address Book or Entourage?
